Company Description Xeinadin Group was established in 2019 when more than 100 successful, independent, business advisory and accountancy practices across the UK and Ireland came together to re-imagine the future of accountancy. Our collective mission to provide locally forged, trusted business advice to SMEs through forward-thinking, close-knit relationships remains pivotal to our growth. It is our people who help drive our business forward, and we offer them future-focused career opportunities whilst supporting the individual specialisms. Our regional offices of over 1800 colleagues operate in collaboration across the Group, combining collective expertise to maximise our people’s potential. As part of one Xeinadin, our colleagues are able to draw on expertise and support from across our UK, Ireland and central teams, as well as benefitting from being a part of their local communities.
